"Hmm." Seeing the robot that had stopped in front of her, Saria carefully used her power to pry open the robot's shell, revealing little by little a cute water sprite with long green hair inside.
"Müllseth? What's she doing here?" Saria was stunned, clearly not expecting this.
"What else could it be? She was schemed against in a power struggle and then stuffed into a robot. I bet someone wanted her to be killed like that."
After all, with Saria's strength, if she had really thrown a punch just now, she probably could have punched the robot through with one blow.
When that time comes, Saria will be surprised to find that her fist is wet, and when she looks down, her hand is covered in blood. She will then wonder why the robot is bleeding.
Thinking of this, Su Rui couldn't help but smile. Fortunately, since Su Rui didn't have a physical form, no one could see her expression.
Saria reached out and checked Muirsey's breathing:
"No problem, she's just been trapped inside. She'll wake up soon after breathing some fresh air."
"That's good. Isn't the water sprite now like a gift sealed in a box with ribbons tied around it?"
Suri's voice rang out again, leaving the doctor somewhat helpless: "Alright, Suri, if you want to open a gift, I can prepare one for you later."
"No, no need, I didn't say that."
Suri didn't know why he suddenly brought this up, and was about to ask him for details when she heard the doctor say:
"Do you remember Mel? You promised him a large laboratory on my behalf, right?"
"Uh, why are you suddenly bringing this up? So what happened?"
Suri was surprised that the doctor still remembered this matter after so long.
"It's nothing. Although it was a bit troublesome, it has been resolved, and Mel is very satisfied."
The Doctor continued, drawing out his words, "But Saria told me that someone could cause me trouble, promising things that would be difficult to do on Rhodes Island."
"I don't. Rhodes Island actually has plenty of internal space, but you can only use a small portion of it. The space inside is actually much larger than it appears from the outside."
Suri immediately retorted to the doctor with some guilt, but this retort only made him seem more guilty.
Seeing that he had diverted Su Rui's attention, the doctor did not continue to question her:
"Alright, let's continue. Let Muels come with us."
"Okay, let's hurry up and we can avoid the patrol team if we go faster."
Su Rui quickly changed the subject; listening to the doctor say those things, he felt a chill run down his spine.
What's going on? He doesn't even have a physical form yet.
Suri shook his head, banishing these thoughts from his mind, and then watched as Saria and the Doctor led Muirsey toward the interior of Rhine Lab.
With Suri's guidance, the infiltration went very smoothly. However, Suri had a question that only lingered in Saria's mind:
"By the way, Saria, how did you get back when I suddenly left last time?"
Suri was a little worried that Seria might be in danger because of his sudden absence.
“No.” Saria shook her head, carefully choosing her words.
Volume 4, page 215: Tornadoes are single
'Although you suddenly lost contact, the route markers you left are still clearly visible in my field of vision, and we got back smoothly.'
Saria paused, then looked away somewhat embarrassed:
"At the time, I was just worried about your situation, so I snapped at the higher-ups."
Seria was a little uneasy. She hadn't expected the higher-level system to have such a hidden identity. If that was the case, Su Rui calling the higher-level system "Old Deng" would sound like a family member, but it would be inappropriate for her to call it that.
Suri wouldn't be angry about this, would she? Saria couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Then, she heard Su Rui's indifferent voice: "Oh, it's nothing. That's just how the higher-level system is. It always likes to do things that make people angry. Even a friendly and approachable person like me can't help but curse at it."
Suri's self-evaluator, Seria, paused slightly, but said nothing; instead, a smile appeared on her lips.
'In that case, let's continue with the current operation.'
"Don't rush, Saria. I want to know how you insulted her. Can you let me hear it over there?"
What kind of words would the usually serious Saria use to curse? Suri was very curious and wanted to know the specifics.
'I call her Old Deng... just like the term you use to refer to your superiors in the system.'
"Your vocabulary is so limited."
As Suri casually remarked, the doctor and his team had already arrived inside Rhine Lab.
The route Suri pointed out was an elevator, but it didn't seem to have a descending option.
"How do we get down?" Saria looked at the control panel with some confusion.
"Don't worry, if it weren't for me, you would have had to go down the stairs, but since I'm here..."
Su Rui paused as she spoke, seemingly operating something, and then the elevator began to descend automatically:
"The descent was controlled by an ID card, but I hacked into the system and controlled the elevator to descend."
As the elevator continued to descend, Saria and the others could already see the enormous underground cavity through the elevator's glass windows.
If it weren't for Suri, it would definitely have taken a lot of effort to find her. As Saria looked at the scan map and detailed route analysis that appeared in her field of vision, a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
The Doctor also looked at Saria: "Did you find anything?"
“Yes, Suri marked a very special facility, which appears to be a huge well, which he calls the Energy Well.”
Saria glanced at the facility marked by Suri, somewhat puzzled: "But what exactly is the purpose of this facility?"
"You'll find out soon enough, but let's deal with the situation at hand first; someone's coming."
As Suri spoke, she highlighted the active individuals in the scanning field of vision that Saria hadn't paid attention to earlier.
"Holhaya has many identities, but in short, her task now should be to stop you."
As Suri introduced it, a creature appeared with Liberi feathers on its head, but with a smooth, scaly tail like that of Phidias.
Just as Suri was giving her a warning, a woman named Horhaya arrived in front of Saria and the Doctor.
"I'll deal with her."
Saria said coldly, then shoved Muerseth, who was on her shoulder, into the Doctor's arms, and then looked directly at Horhyah who was approaching.
"Originally, there was no one else capable of fighting besides you."
As Su Rui spoke, she warned, "Be careful, she's very good at creating hurricanes. Be careful not to get blown away."
'Then I should remind the professors.'
Saria frowned, instinctively wanting to speak, but then heard Suri's voice stop her:
"Don't worry, I've already told Mom. Besides, with you here, there's no need to worry about this at all, because her hurricane is just a hurricane. You've blocked the wind, so it won't hurt Mom and the others."
'What kind of joke is this?' Saria glanced at Horhaia, who had an enigmatic smile, with a puzzled look in her eyes.
How could a hurricane only hit one person? That's impossible.
Therefore, Saria decided to keep the battle away from the Doctor and his companions to avoid them encountering any danger.
It was only at this point that Seria realized something: how could Suri have two mothers?
Forget it, now is not the time to think about this, and besides, it's not important. As long as Su Rui is safe and sound here with me, that's enough.
With this thought in mind, Saria looked at Horhyah in front of her, clenched her fists, and prepared for battle.
"You don't seem surprised by my arrival, Director Seria?"
Holhaya approached, staff in hand, and then suddenly heard her cell phone talking in her pocket:
"Hey, your tail looks great, can I touch it? And your ear feathers look pretty too."
Horhys glanced at her pocket with some surprise, then looked at Saria: "Is this your companion? A cute little kid at that~ If you come to me, I might consider giving you a hug~"
Suri immediately retorted, somewhat annoyed: "What the hell are you talking about! I'm an adult, and theoretically speaking, I'm much older than you!"
"Is that so?" Horhaia wanted to continue talking with Suri, but Saria interrupted their conversation.
For once, Saria revealed a somewhat gloomy expression, coldly interrupting the conversation between Horhaia and Suri, and instructing Suri:
"Alright, Suri, don't talk to shady people, and don't touch other people's tails. It's very impolite."
Without realizing it, Saria's tone became somewhat stern, almost as if she were reprimanding Ifrit.
In fact, Seria disliked what Suri had said to Horhyah, and she couldn't help but add:
"If you want, you can touch my tail later."
"Thanks, Saria, but you guys should fight first. I was just saying that casually."
Suri awkwardly interrupted Saria and Horhyah, who was about to speak again from a short distance away.
Saria snapped out of her thoughts, clenched her fist, and looked at Horhyah in front of her.
However, Horhyah showed no intention of making a move, simply holding her staff and saying, "How about we make a deal? I won't stop you, but I'll go with you."
"Fat Snake, you wouldn't be up to any tricks behind my back, would you?" Su Rui asked warily.
Volume 4, Chapter 216: You fat snake!
Holhaya paused for a moment, then couldn't help but raise her hand and point her finger at her cheek: "Fat snake? Are you talking about me?"
"Otherwise what? I know you're not really fat, but I feel like this nickname suits you well, and it even sounds kind of cute, Fat Snake."
Suri said something that left Horhyah somewhat stunned. Just as Horhyah was in a daze, Saria suddenly flashed close and punched Horhyah hard in the stomach.
The powerful punch from Saria caused Horhaia to arch her body like a shrimp, and even float in mid-air due to the force of the punch. Then, some saliva was involuntarily knocked out of her mouth.
Then, Horhaya convulsed and fell to the ground, but was caught by Saria and carried on her shoulder like a sack. The staff was put into the system space by Suri.
Suri apologized somewhat embarrassedly:
"Sorry, but there's no way to know what you're thinking, so this is the only way I can make sure you won't cause any trouble."
The things I just said, calling Horhyah "Fat Snake," were, while they were Su Rui's own words, actually aimed at attracting Horhyah's attention so that Saria could find a suitable opportunity to make her move.
"However, I had Saria control her strength and keep you conscious so you can act with us~"
Suri was quite happy to have another companion.
However, Horhaia's gaze towards Saria was filled with questions and accusations. If Su Rui had a physical body, Horhaia would probably have looked at Su Rui with such resentment.
Because of the intense pain, Holhaya is now unable to even speak.
Su Rui whispered to comfort her, "Don't be angry. We can become good friends later. Trust is built up little by little."
"..." Holhaya didn't even have the strength to refute Su Rui's words, she just rolled her eyes.
Suri didn't seem to care about her expression, and instead said to herself, "If you want to fight, you can hit back when we meet later, but I can't guarantee I won't fight back~"
Holhaya immediately lowered her head, as if she had fainted, ignoring Su Rui completely and not even giving her a glance.
However, Suri obtained Holhaya's physiological data through a visual field scan and knew that she was not unconscious at all.
“Let’s go. Fat Snake doesn’t want to talk right now, but that won’t stop us from moving forward.”
Suri glanced at Holhaya again. Even if Holhaya still wanted to act, Suri had already taken away all the dangerous items on her, so she was no longer a threat.
With the added reminder from Su Rui's scanning field of vision, Horhaiya could no longer cause any trouble.
However, Suri noticed that Muirsey, whom the doctor had put aside, seemed to be acting differently, so she spoke directly on her phone:
"Look, that water sprite still hasn't woken up, but it's too much work for Saria to carry two sacks at once. How about we leave her here?"
That's what she said on the surface, but what Suri said in Saria's mind was:
“Müllersey is awake. Let’s scare her a little.”
Saria paused for a moment, a slight smile appearing on her lips, and continued, following Suri's lead:
"Hmm, I see there's a refrigerator over there. We can put her in there; there shouldn't be any problems."
As she spoke, Saria walked toward Muirses, as if she really intended to do so.
Still pretending to be asleep, Muirsey heard Saria's footsteps and genuinely thought Saria was going to throw her into the refrigerator. She immediately scrambled to her feet, waving her hands and backing away.
"Wait, wait, Saria, I'm awake now! Don't throw me in the fridge! Besides, who would throw a sleeping person in a fridge?"
As he spoke, Muirsey looked left and right, searching for Suri's whereabouts, and then heard Suri's voice:
